Reply to comment by [deleted] in Hackers Demand $10M From Riot Games to Stop Leak of ‘League of Legends’ Source Code by Sorin61
Yeah I think the value here is for cheat developers. They sell tools to players and source code access is pretty significant.

Still, paying the ransom does not secure the code.
Once it is out, it's game over.

It's true, but if the Hacker group plans to ransom in the future, they won't release it. Basically it's game theory.

Not publicly, but they can still sell it to cheat engine developers without anybody knowing.

That's risky. People talk/leak.
$10m is a lot of recurring revenue to lose
